Review:An awakening that all should read and digest. There has been a tremendous regression with race relations in America over last 8 years. This classic book, published in 1901, has significant relevance today and should be read and discussed in every school at every educational level across the U.S. Read more

Review:What determination this man had. So thoughtful at even a very young age. If anything he shows us that even through the worse despair one could not even imagine one can find and make his own light and lift himself up. Amazing life, amazing man. Read more

Review:Jim Wallis is himself a powerful force for change, not just because he talks the talk so well, but because he has put himself and his family out there. He has lived a life of love and compassion, living and working and listening and talking with the poor and the marginalized. He understands what he writes about because he's lived it. Read more

Review:Very interesting and the side stories are very interesting. It addresses some very pressing points in stereotyping and has a very strong basis in what it discusses. Really good read if you like research and theory essays, also good if you like intellectual casual reading. Read more

Review:I really liked reading this book. Especially after viewing the permanent exhibit on the Titanic at Orlando, Fl., on April 15 of this year (100th anniversary). I did not want to put the book down. Seeing the Exhibit, then reading the book was an interesting experience. What a terrible tragedy! Such heroism on the part of so many! Read more

Review:I very seldom write reviews for the Kindle books I read. However, I had to make an exception for "Sleepers"! This was absolutely the best book I have read in a long time. Although this true story was shocking and touching, the author also made me laugh as he recounted his experiences in his Catholic school and the interaction with his friends. My heart goes out to all who had to endure such atrocities while incarcerated. I wish this would be made in to a movie. Read more

Review:Having never heard of the cult Children of God, I found this book to be absolutely heart breaking at times. The lives these children lived were absolutely miserable. Although these girls suffered from dire circumstances, the end of the story offers a valuable lesson on religion and family. Great book! Read more
